it is no surprise that dianne feinstein of california is pushing the gun control agenda. but there are a great number of democrats in the senate who are not necessarily on board with the idea of voting in restrictions on guns, and harry reid who has always been one of the president's political allies might be one of them. >> rightfully so, self-preservation in washington d.c. is the first law of nature and these members of congress that represent states that have folks that are against gun control. listen, american people are more astute when it comes to the second amendment and our rights to bear arms. should something be done about violence? yes. but by taking our guns away, and i'm one of the ones that believes in the second amendment that is not the answer. so harry reid, if you recall, was endorsed by the nra, harry reid voted against the assault ban in 2004 and got a b grade from the nra. so if i were giving the democrats any type of advice, they should not follow the president's liberal agenda on gun control. jon: -pt president doesn't have to run for office again.
